W
hile dining on the patio of a local restaurant the other evening, I was
envious of the nearby patron and the "flying insect repellent" app residing
on his iPhone. I had the daily special and some annoying flies. He had the
good technology.
And there's the rub –– what's cool and entertaining, and now only ninety-
nine cents away, is the bane of the mobile support personnel at the firm.
There is more technology contained within your BlackBerry than was present on the first
lunar landing module a mere four decades ago and, perhaps, just as much at risk.
Our authors weigh in on how their firms are meeting the challenges imposed
by the convergence of personal entertainment and corporate applications on those
tiny, powerful devices. Whether you're looking for the perfect mate in the way of a
smartphone, doing research to bolster your firm's mobile support policies, or considering
a fleet of netbooks for your team, there's something for everyone herein, thanks to our
knowledgeable authors.
As we close out this year in print, my resolution for the year ahead (aside from
celebrating economic recovery) is to deliver the highest quality content to you, our
cherished members and vendor constituents. And that's content that's written by you!
